Case Study: Sweap achieves scalable, GDPR-compliant event management with IBM Cloud Code Engine

Sweap adopted a serverless platform for its events management software solution using IBM Cloud Code Engine

Sweap, a Berlin-based SaaS startup behind end-to-end event management software, had reached a growth tipping point and needed IT infrastructure that could scale with fluctuating demand, reduce maintenance for developers, and support strict German and EU privacy requirements. Sweap turned to IBM to help address these needs with a modern cloud foundation for its event platform.

IBM implemented a serverless solution on IBM Cloud, centered on IBM Cloud Code Engine, with IBM Cloud Object Storage for event data and IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service for steady workloads. The result was faster product development, simplified operations, and built-in GDPR support in Frankfurt, plus measurable 45% cost savings from reduced computing use.
